Moto 2 was good too but I'm disappointed that Luthi is faltering. Quite similar to Dovi, but I think Marquez is a class apart so it's hard to be critical!
It felt like he was personally responsible for at least 94 of those 73 overtaking maneuvers!
Up until now I've been using my mate's bt sport login in exchange for a certain on demand login of my own. They've now cancelled BT before the last two races of the season !!!!!!!!
Having looked at the cost of BT Sport I'm flabbergasted it's so much considering I only watch 1 sport
I think Julian Ryder put it best when he said, "On each occasion that Jorge's been given the chance to either; do the decent thing, or be the better man, or to make amends, or just hold his hands up and take it on the chin - he's done absolutely 100% the wrong thing, every single time..."
Unreal save from Marquez though to keep himself upright!
Just read that Tech will no longer be running Yamaha's after this season (speculation is them becoming a KTM satellite team)
Didn't expect that........
Feels like a VERY long time since I've seen a bike race...
So happy for Cal - i'm never his biggest fan but he's British and works damn hard. One thing i do like is his attitude to winning - he's never surprised that he wins as he knows it's his job to go out and do that.
Felt bad for Miller but also understood the decision to delay the start as 23 bikes leaving pit lane all at once would be too dangerous.
As for MM93. Stalling a bike on the grid, refusing to follow the rules by letting the marshall assist you off the grid. Then riding the wrong way on the grid back to join the rest of the riders whilst holding up the start was stupid & dangerous. They should have black flagged him straight away. Then for him to carve up Espagaro leading to being forced to drop a place before then doing the same to Rossi was just reckless and immature.
If it had been any other rider (excluding VR46 as i'm adamant he and MM93 get special treatment as they're the big ticket draws) they would have been black flagged for sure.
It was disappointing to see him make those errors of judgement. The Espargaro one was a poor prediction of what the rider in front would do and the Rossi one was just braking too late from too far back (which probably was very close to his normal braking point).
The whole start sequence was extraordinary and Miller was denied the advantage his decision should have given to him.
On the other hand there have been some marvellous inconsistency of race penalties over the last few years.
He really is uncompromising, and I think he is as incredible as he is because of that. Yes, he could have cruised through from the beginning and finished top 6ish- good points given the ride-through. I don't think I want him to start making those mature decisions, though. I want him to go for it, every time!
